What is Pvt. Ltd. Company?
A Pvt. Ltd. Company is a type of business structure commonly used in India that offers limited liability protection to its shareholders and allows them to operate as a separate legal entity. This type of company requires at least two directors and can have up to 200 shareholders. The shares cannot be publicly traded on stock exchanges, and the ownership is restricted to a close group of individuals. Pvt. Ltd. companies are known for their flexibility, scalability, and tax efficiency, making them an ideal option for entrepreneurs and small to medium-sized businesses looking to operate in India. Additionally, this form of business structure provides access to various funding and investment opportunities and enables business owners to raise capital more easily. In short, a Pvt. Ltd. Company combines the benefits of both a partnership and a company, offering limited liability protection to its shareholders and allowing them to efficiently conduct business operations under a legally recognized corporate structure.
